There\u2019s a bundle of joy on the way and it\u2019s time to celebrate! Whether you\u2019re throwing your own baby shower at home or hosting one virtually for your expectant loved one, the first step in planning the special day is making a guest list and sending out invites.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Baby shower invites are more than just telling guests about a time and place, they also include details on what the parents need \u2014 like books, gift cards, and diapers \u2014 and sometimes they double as a gender reveal announcement. That means choosing your words wisely is even more important when crafting these invites.<\/span><\/p>\n If you\u2019re feeling stuck on what to say or a little overwhelmed planning the virtual big day, we\u2019re here to help. Use our virtual baby shower invitation wording tips, plus discover gorgeous invitation inspiration.<\/span> The main goal of a virtual <\/span>baby shower invitation<\/strong><\/span><\/a> is to provide guests with information about the special day. This includes the classic tidbits like when you\u2019re hosting the shower and what technology guests need in order to participate. It can also include information on what <\/span>gifts to send the new parents<\/a><\/strong> or the gender of the baby, if relevant.<\/span><\/p>\n Here\u2019s some information you should almost always include on a virtual baby shower invite:<\/span><\/p>\n It\u2019s a good idea to send your baby shower invitations up to six weeks before the event. This gives guests enough time to mark their calendars and purchase gifts if needed. The RSVP date should be around one to two weeks before the virtual baby shower.<\/span><\/p>\n Just because you can\u2019t get everyone together in person doesn’t mean you can\u2019t honor the special moment. If you\u2019re hosting a virtual baby shower, here are some wording ideas and invitation inspiration to do the moment justice.<\/span><\/p>\n While you may be having the party virtually this time, you can still use a lot of the fun sayings you\u2019ve seen on traditional baby shower event invites. Just be clear that the event is virtual or remote as opposed to in-person.<\/span><\/p>\n When it comes to virtual <\/span>baby shower invitation wording<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, it\u2019s all about being creative. There\u2019s no one right way to write an invite. You can make the wording as formal or friendly as you\u2019d like. Baby shower invitations in particular are perfect for having fun and playing with language.<\/span><\/p>\n Not sure where to start? You can use the design of your invitation as inspiration. At <\/span>Greenvelope<\/strong><\/span><\/a>, you\u2019ll find hundreds of baby shower invitations featuring everything from balloons bursting with joy to celebratory baby elephants and sweet storks. With these baby-inspired elements, you can craft cute phrases and fun sayings to invite guests to the special celebration. Below are some ideas to get you started.<\/span><\/p>\n Many baby shower invites feature creatures and critters to celebrate the special occasion.
